KMid has an feature to start fluidsynth when KMid is started. However it tells me that I need another version of fluidsynth. But which version do I need? In the moment I have 1.1.2 installed.

Oh, I was wrong. Not the fluidsynth version was wrong but the soundfont didn't exist. You should maybe make something like that more clear to avoid confusion.

Compile OpenSuSE 11.3 KDE 452

Greetings!

I was enthralled to find kmid! I do have 2.3 working but when I try to compile 2.4.0 it hangs at 34% while trying to compile midimapper.o. I am not very conversant with debugging cmake setups (pretty good with the other tools), and I would be happy to try to help figure this out if I had some pointers where to look. I tried the verbose option to cmake but that didn't seem to show anything. Thanks for maintaining this great package.

I've successfully compiled KMid 2.4.0 in open suse 11.3, so there may be a problem in your machine. I don't provide binary packages anymore, but you should request it to your distro. Maybe they don't provide it because they believe that it is not important for any user. If they don't want to listen, you can change your distribution; KMid is currently available in Mandriva and Fedora official repositories, among others.

Pedro

Hi Pedro:

Thanks for the fast reply. It compiles under the released 4.4.4 KDE, but not 4.5.0 "factory" nor 4.5.2 "Release" (I have 7 machines running 11.3) I'll try to figure it out and let you know. I may try to learn how to pack an RPM to install from the other machines into my target machine ... just an area I'm not experienced in. I was hoping the 2.4.0 version would show the lyrics in a few troublesome .kar's where the pointer jumps ahead in the lyrics weirdly; the very old kmid worked on those files (ie, africa.kar ), but otherwise 2.3 is working.

In any case, thank you so much for keeping this project alive!

I've added KMid to my build service project, here:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=kmid&project=home%3Aplcl

It has compiled successfully in all opensuse 11.3 variants, 32 and 64 bits, with KDE 4.4 and KDE 4.5, and with KDE:Release:45 and KDE:Distro:Factory repositories.

Maybe some of the resulting RPM packages is useful for you.

Pedro
